2020 Jeep Touch Up Paint (48 OEM Colors)

The 2020 Jeep Vibe

2020 was a year most of us would rather forget, but for Jeep, it was a Technicolor dream. Between the boxy Renegade, the refreshed Grand Cherokee, and the Gladiator finally hitting the trails in force, the palette was anything but boring. With 48 colors in our database for this year alone, it's clear the factory was working overtime. Whether you were rocking the high-vis Acid Yellow, the tropical Bikini Pearl Metallic, or the tactical Sarge Green, these rigs were designed to stand out in a trailhead parking lot. It was an era of "High Impact" choices-Jeep knew that if you were buying a Wrangler or a Gladiator, you didn't want to blend into a sea of rental-car silver.

Paint Health Check

Welcome to the Thin Paint Era. By 2020, those factory robots had become masters of efficiency, which is just a polite way of saying they got real stingy with the product. They spray a clear coat so thin you could practically see through it if you squinted hard enough. The result? A finish that's prone to "orange peel" texture and stone chips that go deep the second you follow a gravel truck. But the real headache for this generation is the "bubbling" phenomenon. If you've got a Wrangler or a Gladiator, check your door hinges and hood edges. Between the thin factory application and the way different metals play together under the surface, that Punkn Metallic or Firecracker Red might be starting to lift and blister. It's not your fault-it's just robot efficiency meeting real-world elements.

Restoration Tip

When you're touching up a 2020 Jeep, remember: Build, don't blob. Because the factory finish is so thin and brittle, a giant drop of paint will look like a mountain on a molehill. You want to apply your color in thin, patient layers to match that shallow factory profile. If you're dealing with those common chips on the hinges or the leading edge of the hood, clean the area obsessively first. Since the clear coat is hard but thin, use a steady hand to fill the crater just until it's level. Don't try to finish it in one go-give the layers time to settle so you don't end up with a "top-heavy" repair that catches the light the wrong way.
